Add the following code in your mageplaza_helloworld_post_listing.xml file

<columns>
...
...
<actionsColumn class="Mageplaza\HelloWorld\Ui\Component\Listing\Column\Actions" name="actions">
    <argument name="data" xsi:type="array">
        <item name="config" xsi:type="array">
            <item name="indexField" xsi:type="string">post_id</item>
        </item>
    </argument>
</actionsColumn>
...
...
</columns>
